Obama alienates wealthy donors with plan to limit charitable tax deductions

The Daily Caller reports:

Rich donors who give to charitable causes are angry that President Barack Obama is again pushing to extend taxes on charitable donations by the wealthy, said Diana Aviv, president and CEO of Independent Sector, a Washington, D.C.-based advocacy group for nonprofits.

“In the last few days, I’ve been inundated, absolutely inundated” with angry emails from wealthy donors,” said Aviv, who gave Obama $2,800 in the 2008 campaign, and another $1,000 in June 2011, according to data collected by the Center for Responsive Politics. Aviv added that many of those emails are coming from donors who supported Democrats in 2008
